The Piano Factory
de Jonathan Davies · Publicada por primera vez en 2004
"Jimmy Reilly has always protested his innocence, and Jeremy Scott, his lawyer, has always believed him. He's convinced the case against Reilly will collapse, that he will leave court as a free man - not as a convicted paedophile." "But there's a loophole in the law where the Child Protection Act is concerned - and Reilly falls right through it. Even the jury is stunned by what, unwittingly, they have done to him. Yet persistently denying the offences, he is, in turn, denied any help. He remains outside the criminal justice system, a stained satellite of society." "And once you're tainted, there's no escape. Someone like Reilly is now fair game for the fury of liberal 'lites'. A pervert, a paedophile, and a prime target for the press." "Jeremy Scott, in turn, furious at the failings of his own profession, steps outside its parameters to investigate the case himself - and slides straight into a world that both mirrors and mocks the judicial system. A parallel universe populated by policemen, ex-cons and court reporters. People who, for a price, will 'fix' cases of child abuse and sexual assault. And other people who pay that price with their lives." "The Piano Factory provides a horrifyingly believable glimpse of the shadowy figures that hover at the doors of this country's courtrooms. People who exploit, manipulate and even orchestrate the legal system to administer an alternative, criminal means of justice."--BOOK JACKET.
